Fine wines -- best without food?

[Thomas]

I agree with hotwine.

In my opinion, wine IS food. I get a kick out of both liquid and solid food--especially when they are married at one sitting.

Not that I do not sip wine once in a while on its own, but to place wine in the category of a drink is to misplace it, and also to play right into the hands of the new prohibitionists, who are convinced that we drink this stuff for the buzz---I know, w.w., some of us do!

I am curious Jaime, what constitutes "fine wine" to you?
